Question Answers
How can compost and loam help fix standing water in my Bellingham yard?
Standing water is often caused by compacted or poor-draining soil. Our compost adds organic matter, which loosens the soil structure, allowing water to penetrate deeper instead of pooling on the surface. Mixing our screened loam into your existing soil further improves drainage by creating a balanced, friable texture. Together, they help water flow through the soil profile, solving common local drainage problems.
What's the best way to use your products to fix compacted soil?
For compacted soil, we recommend a process called topdressing or core aeration followed by amendment. First, aerate your lawn or garden bed to create holes in the compacted layer. Then, spread a 1/2-inch to 1-inch layer of our compost over the area and rake it in. The compost will filter into the holes, introducing organic matter and beneficial microbes that break up compaction from below, revitalizing your soil's health and structure.
